FAQ Overview

You can't save a file from the course by right-clicking and choosing "Save as...". This just saves the ePembelajaran@UMT 'container' page, rather than the file itself.

Cure: To save the file, click on the link first to open it in the browser, then use File > Save as... from the browser menu.

Did you upload it to ePembelajaran@UMT?

The files on your computer or on your H: space, and the files within ePembelajaran@UMT are completely independent. If you change a file on your H: space, for example, it remains unchanged on ePembelajaran@UMT until you upload it.

Cure: Turn editing on, and click the Update button alongside the File in ePembelajaran@UMT. Click Add... to re-upload the file, and choose to overwrite the old one.

For links to other websites, e-packs or online journals, see My reading list link doesn't work on this page. If you’re linking to another file in ePembelajaran@UMT, read on:

Have you uploaded the destination file to ePembelajaran@UMT?

If you create a link to another file, you must make sure that that file is also uploaded into the same File resource on ePembelajaran@UMT. For example, if the filereadings.htm contains a link to a file article.pdf, then you have to upload both readings.htm and article.pdf into a single File resource in ePembelajaran@UMT, otherwise the link won’t work.

Cure: Click on the Add an activity or resource link. A new window will launch from which you can choose to add resources, when you scroll to the bottom. Choose file and click Add and drag and drop or browse for the file to upload it (the one containing the link), then repeat the process to upload the destination file (the one being linked to). Before you save the resource as a whole, click on the main file and choose set main file.

Prevention: Whenever you create links within an HTML file, remember that these need to be uploaded too (as well as any images you insert).

This is a file encoding problem, which usually occurs in old HTML pages.

Cure: To fix individual problems, open the file in FrontPage, and replace the symbols if they do not look OK. Then select Format > Properties, click the Languages tab, and change "Save the document as" to "Unicode (UTF-8)". Save the file, then upload it to ePembelajaran@UMT.

If you have inherited a course that has a large number of these problems, contact mylearn@umt.edu.my and we can help you fix them in bulk.

Prevention: If creating new HTML documents, always use the new templates, available from the ePembelajaran@UMT front page. If editing existing documents, follow the directions above to convert them to Unicode before uploading to ePembelajaran@UMT.

That depends

There are various types of links found in reading lists - check which of the following applies to you:

Is it an e-journal article?

Electronic journals sometimes go off-line, for example if the Library subscription expires, or journals might change the URL used to reference your article. This can be avoided through the use of stable URLs, which never change.

Cure: Locate the journal and then the article via the Library's journals page, to make sure that the article is still available online. If it is, replace the link in your HTML file with the correct stable URL (see 'Prevention' below).

Prevention: Always use stable URLs wherever possible. 

Is it an e-pack item (scanned reading)?

This often occurs because a new academic term has begun, for which the e-pack must be renewed. Links may become broken because the e-pack was not renewed, so the files have been taken off-line, or because the files moved to a new location on renewal.

Cure: Check the link URL corresponds to that sent to you by the e-packs service. If you have not received the URL, contact el@umt.edu.my to request it.

Prevention: Check that the lecturer has renewed the e-pack and verify that the links still work.

Is it somewhere else on the web?

Cure: Visit the website in question and check whether the file is still there. It may have moved to a new location on the same server, in which case you'll need to update your link accordingly.

Prevention: Most websites other than e-journals do not use 'stable' URLs that can be relied upon to never change, so there is little you can do to ensure that your links remain operational forever. It is a good idea to check such links periodically to make sure they are still working. At the least, you should check these links when updating your reading lists for a new academic year or term.

Is it a file on your drive?

Shuffling of the options within a multiple-choice question is controlled by two independent settings - one in the question settings, and one in the quiz settings.

Cure & prevention: First, update the quiz and set "Shuffle within questions" to "Yes". Next, edit the question, and make sure "Shuffle the choices" is set to "Yes".

The Aiken format lets you create multiple-choice or true-false questions using a simple, human-readable format that you can save as a plain text file and import into a LMS course.

Write Questions in the Aiken Format

Step 1 :

Write your questions in a word-processing application (e.g., MS Word) or a text editor such as Notepad (Windows) or Text Edit (Mac OS X), and format as follows:

• The question must be all on one line.
• Each answer must start with a single uppercase letter, followed by a period "." or a right parenthesis ")", then a space.
• The answer line must immediately follow, starting with "ANSWER: " (with a space after the colon) and then give the letter for the correct answer.
  Note: The word "ANSWER" and the answer letters (A,B,C etc.) must be capitalized as shown, otherwise the import will fail.

Step 2 :

Use Save As and save your questions as a .txt (plain text) file in UTF-8 format.

Forums are useful places for receiving information, discussing topics with peers and for asking questions relating to your course. As with any form of communication, written, spoken or otherwise, it is important that you show respect to those you are conversing with. Also remember that it is more difficult to 'take something back' in written communication. Contributions are in the public domain and 'committed to posterity'. Moodle forum posts will not be made available outside the institution however. So you should not flinch from being honest, controversial and passionate, but keep your comments on topic and avoid making personal remarks.

ePembelajaran@UMT assignments  are shown on the course homepage. Some departments put each assignment within its corresponding ePembelajaran@UMT course e.g. ACC3100, BBB3101 etc. Some departments use a specific ePembelajaran@UMT course for collecting all assignments across a programme or the department.

The assignment submission page will show the assignment deadline and further details. The exact steps for submitting an assignment depend on the settings chosen by your lecturer.

• For file submissions, either drag and drop your file(s) into the File submissions field, or browse for the file to upload by clicking on Add... in the left top corner. Finally, click Save changes to confirm.
• For text only submissions, click Add submission and type into the Online text box. Save changes. You may edit your submission until the due date.

You may be able to read, edit and resubmit your assignment type depending on the settings your lecturer has chosen. If your lecturer is providing feedback and grades through ePembelajaran@UMT you be able to see this by clicking on the assignment once it has been marked. You will usually receive an email notification.

You may be required to accept a submission statement, indicating that you are submitting your own work.

Most ePembelajaran@UMT courses are automatically reset at the end of each academic year. This means that your ePembelajaran@UMT course enrolments and any course contributions including discussion postings, quiz and assignment submissions are automatically removed. If you are retaking a course you should simply re-enrol for the new version of the relevant ePembelajaran@UMT course.

Some course proprietors may choose to make courses unavailable before this time so that they can prepare them for the following academic year. This would not normally happen until after the exam period has finished, or in the case of taught postgraduate courses until dissertations have been submitted. However, this is entirely at the discretion of the academic department and course proprietors.

Although you will still be able to log into ePembelajaran@UMT itself until the end of each academic year after you graduate, you should seek permission from the relevant academic department if you wish to access a ePembelajaran@UMT course after the course has been automatically reset. Similarly, requests for access to archives of past course iterations should be made to system administrator via the relevant academic department.
